"i' NEW RESERVOIR BEFORE VOTERS HERE T0IVI0RR0W t i (Continued From Page One.) a combined capacity of only 4,000, 000 gallons. The board of water com missioners believes that the addi tional ,storage facilities are needed as a safety and insurance measure. The water board Is authority for the statement that construction oi the reservoir will net increase the tax levy or' the watei rates. The bonds, the commissioners state, are to be serviced from revenue provided by the water rates. Proposal Not New. The water board has emphasized that the proposal to construct an additional reservoir Is not new. Since the present water system was inau gurated, the commissioners state, every board, with Its engineers, has recommended erection of another reservoir and it had long been plan ned to probeed with construction after 1038 when bonds of the old Fish lake line would be retired. The proposition has come up at this time because of the federal grant of 965.250. If the gift la not accepted, it has been pointed' out, It will be lost for all time and later the city will have to bear the entire expense of building the reser voir. It has been estimated by Robert A. Duff, water board engineer, that construction of the reservoir would provide 60,600 hours of work during the six winter months when employ ment Is normally slaqk. Old Line Useless The old Fish lake pipe lino, which has been used as a standby to keep the present reservoirs full in case of a brealc In the main line. Is de scribed as practically useless. Con structed of wood and built 25 years ago, the Fish lake line. It Is said, must soon be abandoned completely as Its utility does not Justify the excessive cost of repair and mainte nance. - The Oregon Insurance Rating bu reau has Informed the water board that If the old pipe line Is aban doned without providing for addi tional water storage, Insurance rates on mercantile buildings nnd their contents will be increased 4 per certt. It Is pointed out that merchants alone would save a substantial sum of money annually by averting an Increase In Insurance costs. Consumption Huge.' Statistics show that for a few min utes last August 12 domestic con sumption of water was at the dally rate of 13.850,000 gallons while the actual consumption that day waa 8,850,000 gallons,' or more than twice the capacity of the existing reservoirs. It la possible to consume more than the reservoirs hold be cause under ordinary circumstances water is drawn directly from the source through the pipe line. It is only In emergercles, when the pipe line Is closed for repairs, that the reservoirs are tapped. . It was emphasized by the water board that if a serious break oc curred in the pipe line the reservoirs would be quickly depleted and rent dents would suffer from a water shortage, to say nothing of the danger of a fire that could jiot be checked because of lack of water. Some time ago the water board was authorized to issue bonds to the extent , of 150.000. That issue, which has never been sold t or uti lized, will be cancelled upon ap proval of the, 980,000 issue in the special election tomorrow. Form of Ballot. The ballot on which Medford. citi zens will vote tomorrow follows: BALLOT TITLE CITY OF MEDFORD WATER BONDS. SERIES B.
